And here we go with yet another viral story that virtually every media outlet drooled over, and none of them cared to fact check it. As it turns out, that viral story about an Australian woman offering to ride the train with a Muslim woman who was self-conscious about wearing her hijab after the Sydney Siege never happened.
The story is a complete fantasy, so admits Rachael Jacobs, the woman who started the whole thing.

The concept our sterling press just doesn’t get…or chooses to ignore.
If it talks like a cute little Bambi cartoon, and it walks like a cute little Bambi cartoon…..
Yep, I wrote about this last month:

Sounds like Orwell’s 1984, where the protagonist invented a fictitious hero with fictitious heroic deeds. he political system was wait-for-it INGSOC or English Socialism. Truth is stranger than fiction.
Most big time news stories are false or staged for the propeganda purposes like the handshake between Rabid Rabin and Yair(Thats My Baby)Arafat with Slick Willy looking over it or when USA TODAY was forced to admit their reportters had gang memmbers holding guns for a big photo shoot at least 96% of the news is faked or totaly fabricated
“Layers of fact checkers”
Once you come to the realization that the thrust and purpose of modern coopted media is not to report fact but to create reality and narratives for their patrons, things like open lying in media will no longer shock you.
No informed or reasoning person will rely on MSM for their information – MSM have breached our right to untampered information needed to make informed decisions. Essentially Media silence, distortion, and false narratives are undermining democratic process for select special interests, this is the function of the media – deal with their output accordingly.
Facts??? From a MSM outlet? Thanks for the morning laugh.
Sounds like the making of a Cameron movie..”Guilt-nator, The Rise Of The Composites”
The MSM self loathes and hates everything that has separated western liberal democracy from the dysfunctional dictatorships and failed states. It gleefully reports anything that would or could help to tear down liberal democracy. It is of the same mind as Justin Trudeau as in an admiration of the system of government in China.
On a similar vein: Some of my liberal family members posted story on facebook. It was a picture of a door with the word faggots scratched in the paint. Beside the word was a note giving a ‘gracious’ response to the vandalism. My immediate response was, “I wonder when it will be shown that the ‘faggots’ did it themselves.

all the lefties claim they are in favour of lunacy like safe-injection sites… but would even one of them bring a smelly strung-out junkie home for a meal?
they talk a good game. that’s it.

Funny how the same people that deny Jesus existed, support publishing this bullshit as if it was real… and start a “movement”. Bowel movement if you ask me.
“…..Besides, I was in the “quiet carriage” where even conversation is banned.”
Whatever happened to freedom of speech?
Although I generally find Americans suitable company, I have noticed that they have developed traits much different from most Canadians.
For example, at a restaurant, while we enjoy our meals, perhaps 3-4 teams of Americans rotate through nearby tables. They sit down inhale their food and are gone.
Quebecois and Europeans, I have encountered in the USA, have noticed the same, and consider it bad manners. One observed that generally the food inhalers do not engage in ANY conversation. He suspected that their idea of a night out was diner and something else…that diner was mere maintainence and that the other event was the priority.
I’d be more useful to me as on my journey to work in public transportation, to have a mobile phone app that alerted me to when the word “bomb” (for example) was spoken in arabic or farsi or perhaps in somali or whatever they speak over there in their hell lands.
Perhaps like Shazam app can tell me any song title after less than 5 seconds of listening, I could click on “Bomb Alert Now”! for when a load of these entered onto a train and started shouting into their mobile devices. Those 5 seconds could save a life.

Precisely why I rely on a number of sources for news. Yes, the dailies, but moreso the various blogs. It’s vitally important (to me) to gain the various perspectives and hopefully winnow the truth.
The (predominantly) left-wing media has no shame.
ah yes sasquatch, using queerbeckers as a reference is like quoting dickapedia, it has NO value
as to your BS about americans, well I guess BS about covers it. I have been in 40 of the lower 48, some as many as 30 times and beg to differ with your BS
as to left wing news BS, T’was happening 50 years ago, so why would anyone be surprised it happens today
When I was young,me and a couple of friends went to the movie theater to see a new “war” movie,called “To Hell and Back”.
It was about a real WW2 hero who won the Congressional Medal of Honor. We were all excited as hell,sat right smack dab in the middle of the front row!
And in my mind,at least,I was there on the battlefield with Audie Murphy,( probably the only CMH winner who ever portrayed himself on the screen) ‘midst the exploding artillery rounds,the flying machine gun bullets.
My friends and I loved the movie. But after reading this post,I wonder, should me and my friends not be awarded the Congressional? After all, we were THERE with Audie every step of the way!
When we played “guns” for the next six months, we were always Audie Murphy!
“I will gratefully and humbly accept this award on behalf of myself and all the eight year old kids in the Rex Theater.”
Wow! And to think I might get to meet President Obama!
What a thrill that would be.
Liberalism is a progressive disease.
The classic dweeb dreaming she is the big hero, heroin?
Good feeling all round the crazies paradise.
“But it might have happened”, no sh*t !
These children are weirdly deluded.
So the real story is what?
She watched another woman take off a headscarf, then projected her own racism and islamafobia all over the world?
Just remember, the USA Democrats were always the White Knights in their fantasies, NEVER the KKK.
Sadly history is now so poorly taught that American Negroes continue to rush to be enslaved by these “helpers”.
There is something very sad about a subset of a race being deliberately used and abused .Controlled by lies and false fears.
Same here in Canada, our left continue to help the indians stay enslaved by welfare and racism.
In Australia the Abo’s are being “helped” the same way.
Funny how all that progressive help and flow through of tax dollars seems to create very rich helpers and systematically destroyed helpees.
Oopes forbidden words, straight to sin bin.
